The Arizona Bay Crew is a crew in the DiSalvo crime family. It is led by Anthony Scarpa, a Capo in the DiSalvo crime family. The crew is named after the ‘’Arizona Bay Social Club’’, the known hangout of members of the crew as well as members of a multitude of non-Italian-American organized crime groups. The crew itself features 20 made members but it has formed deep ties with the large amount of other organized crime cells of which members are known to frequent the same social club and associate with Scarpa's gang. While members of other criminal organizations aren’t officially included as ‘’associates’’ of the DiSalvo crime family, they are unofficial ‘’members’’ of Scarpa's crew. Due to the alliance between the organized crime groups, the organization is able to summon a man power of more than 1,500 criminals. The crew is known for being particularly vicious, ruthless and violent, as well as for being involved in everything and anything (excluding child prostitution) that can make a dime. As one government agent put it: ‘’Other crews, whether they’re from within the DiSalvo family or from the other Five Families, are scared shitless of them.’’ Nevertheless they’re seen as a symbolic enterprise coming from the DiSalvo family, often seen as the least powerful but toughest of the Five Families.
